Hard disagree. In the real world, the source of this app is open and therefore it is open source. You guys are behaving like extremists.
Would you prefer nothing at all? Sounds like in this case everyone here is looking past the golden egg in front of you - a successful rails app you can explore and play with - and focusing entirely on the wrong thing.
You're acting as if there aren't already tens of thousands of actual open source projects that exist just fine, some even make enough money to support continued development.
Why are you acting like the alternative is to burn down the system, you realize that there are plenty of people, organizations, and businesses that make actual open source software right? Like today even.
